Welcome to Potty Training -- NOT!

I thought some might find this as amusing as my mother did..... so for today's laugh...

i decided to start potty training today. We have been talking about the potty and sitting on the potty chair and the seat on mommy's potty, so this morning I decided to throw a pullup on them and start this process. This morning went well... no has done anything on the potty, but they seem excited about the process, but I figured I would get someone for the after-nap pee. I brought them down from naps, put them back in pullups and shirts and went to get the potties set up. No one seemed very interested so I started to clean my kitchen. About 5 minutes in they were laughing and running around and I thought I;d try the potty again when my son tried to climb into my lap and I left the wetness......the runs! I will leave it at a big mess and quick tub visit, then I saw my daughter and bingo! same thing. Now I think that I have traumatized my children. What could have caused this???? How badly did I botch this??? Then I started prepping for dinner and looked into the fridge and noticed the blueberries were missing. Hmmmmm... I have a whole pint left! Hmmmm nothing on the floor. Then I recalled our failed pullup incident. Apparently they decided to eat an entire pint of blueberries after lunch and before naps. Blueberries + pullups = BIG MESS + TUBBIES!
